About: I’ve raised and trained working dog breeds, including cattle dogs, so I understand the importance of mental stimulation, exercise, and structure. My experience includes obedience training, handling high-energy dogs, and managing multiple pets. I’m confident in providing care for dogs with strong drives, and I treat every pet like family As a stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible routine that allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to your pet. I'm available for drop-ins, walks, and boarding throughout the week, including weekends. Your pup will enjoy plenty of playtime and care in a calm and loving home environment. Your pet will be safe, supervised, and treated like family. I’m happy to follow any special routines or crate your dog if needed. Cleanliness, comfort, and safety are top priorities in my home.
“My senior dog was very well taken care of during our absence. I loved receiving daily updates and pictures so I wouldn’t miss him so much! Thank you for taking care of him while we were gone.”
About: Observing and addressing subtle changes in a dog's behavior. Providing mentally stimulating activities like playtime, puzzle feeders, and appropriate socialization opportunities. Being flexible with scheduling and accommodating special requests. Promptly responding to inquiries, addressing concerns, and building a positive relationship with clients. Creating individual routines for each dog based on their dietary needs, exercise requirements. Regularly sending updates, photos, and videos to owners to keep them informed about their dog's well-being. I've done it all! Animals are a passion of mine! I'm a mama to 2 dogs and 1 cat! Their spoiled at their core! Let me spoil your pet too! Tuesdays are my only day of the week im not available. The rest of the week is open to work around my routine. Thank you I have a fenced in yard with plenty of room to play and run. I have two pups to keep your pup company. I have a safety fence in my house as well if your needing your pet separated from mine. Your pets safety is my upmost concern! I will keep your pet active by playing outside with them.
About: I have been raised around animals and pets(livestock, dogs, cats, birds, etc.) ever since I could remember. I lived in a farm town with a wide variety of animals. My mother also owned a boarding and grooming facility that I was raised at feeding, watering, and walking the animals. I’m a senior at Lindsey Wilson University, I graduate in December ‘26. During the summer, May 19th through August 25th I’ll be available! I would love to come spend some time with your pet! Please reach out with any questions! I have had two dogs in my lifetime that were my sole responsibility. I have had one cat that I shared with my mother. I love to play fetch with my own pup and go on hikes with him as well. I had a lop-eared bunny I rescued as well, during my move to Kentucky I had to give him to my best friend.
About: Apart from my good aura & energy, cats are drawn to my respectful boundaries & patience to let them come to me when they are ready. I have been cat sitting for so long that I am familiar with several types of litter boxes, toys, foods & signs. "My cat has never warmed up so fast to anyone" remains a common phrase throughout my entire life. I wake up and let my parents dog out, clean the litter box for their cats & then feed the fish in case my mother forgot. I also feed the dog in the afternoon (mom does morning) & the cats as well. Any help that is needed along with vet visits, fall on me since I am home more than anyone. I make sure that I am aware of any hiding spots in other peoples homes for cats so that I can check on them constantly even if it just means checking that they are still in the same spot. Cats, depending on playfulness, need attention & proper care. I make sure I set alarms or reminders if they need medication or special care from the owners. Watching tv, reading a book or cleaning are my favorite past times while I cat sit. If I need to be home all day with them, then I will entertain myself easily.
“Sloane is an absolute gem. She is conscientious, dedicated, and thorough. She takes care of our basket-case of a rescue dog several times per week and has been our savior from the ridiculousness of his unending energy and anxiety while we’re away. Her report cards are filled with humor and have us laughing out loud every time. Cannot recommend her enough!”
About: I was born into an animal-loving family and I have continued to instill this love for animals in my own children. I have had a menagerie of animals all of my life. At the young age of 12, I started walking the neighbors' dogs and going to their houses when they were out of town to feed, water, and walk their pets. In college, I worked part-time in several different veterinary clinics. I am still very well connected to the veterinary world so if I am unsure of something involving my pets, I am able to reach out to get an answer pretty quickly. Over my lifetime of 40 yrs. I have had at least 20 dogs, 10 cats, several rabbits, horses, chinchillas, guinea pigs, hamsters, and a few reptiles (but no snakes). In my full-time job, I have a hybrid work schedule. Some days I am in the office and some days I work from home. This allows some flexibility when caring for fur babies. My family also helps care for our "animal guests". It is a group effort! I have a 1/2 acre that is fenced. I have 3 dogs- a Newfoundland, Black Lab, and a Beagle. All of my dogs are rescues. I know that I rescued them but as cheesy as it sounds, most days I feel like they rescued me. Each of them has their own personality, which I love. My dogs are usually always by my side when I am home. My dogs love to jump on the bed or couch and get snuggles. I also have 3 cats. All of them found us. They were all dumped on us and of course, I couldn't turn them away. :) I would treat your animals the same way I treat mine- with love and snuggles.
About: I’ve worked at a doggy daycare for about 2 years now. So I have experience with all breeds and I know how to handle them. I’ve volunteered multiple times at my local animal shelter along with giving dogs medicine including insulin shots! Other than that I’ve grown up with many dogs and cats. So I love animals. I’m currently in college with a major in agriculture hoping to be a vet in the future! I’m currently on summer break so I have a lot of free time at the moment! I can house sit, drop in visits, and do walks in the evening or at whatever time on my days off! I can only care for your pets in your home since I live in a dorm! I will follow all rules given to me to take care of your fur baby!
“Allie was amazing to have with our animals while we were away! She came to meet them beforehand and was extremely organized and flexible. Allie provided updates throughout and was extremely helpful! Hoping we can book her again!!!”
About: I have cared for animals of all kinds ranging from ferrets and bunnies to horses and large dogs, several of which had various medical needs and requirements. I also have experience in basic training for dogs if a training regimen is required. I am currently waiting for the fall semester for college to start so I have lots of free time to devote to the care and safety of your animals. While I cannot care for other dogs or cats in my home, small pets like ferrets and chinchillas are welcome if they travel with an enclosure.
About: I have a very anxious senior dog who I love caring for. I am able to handle all needs of your fur babies from medical needs to just your typical potty break. I am an elementary special education teacher. This causes for my schedule to be limited to evenings and weekends. I will have some day availability some weeks and in the summer. I can easily crate your dog if needed. I can take your fur baby on walks with or without a harness. I can cover their food and water needs.
“We love Allison! Echo and Ollie get SO excited to go on their walks! I can’t recommend her enough! Allison loves and cares for the pups and does a fantastic job! We are very happy!”
About: Ive always been surrounded by animals my whole life. They are a strong passion of mine. I have a sweet playful pup of my own right now. Ill happily enjoy watching your pets and treat them as well as I treat my own! I do work full time. I work the same hours weekly Monday - Friday 8:30-4:30 ( can take lunch break for pet check in ) I live in a large neighborhood. Very friendly. Great streets for walking. My family is a huge pet friendly family!! A dog park is about 5 minutes away!
About: As an experienced pet and house sitter, I strive to take the best care of all your animals. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, and small animals throughout their whole lifespan. I promise to care for your animals like I would care for my own, pampering them and giving them the best care whether it be during a walk or a drop-in visit. While in high school, I worked as a vet tech at a local clinic and was trained to give medication, clip nails, & give baths. Personally, I have cared for animals with complex medical needs and am a nurse, which allows me to recognize acute changes in your babies.My goal is always to make sure your pets are cared for the way you would care for them, so that you don’t have to worry while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your pets & I cannot wait to love on them like you would. I have taken some time off for my full-time job, allowing me to care for your pets all hours of the day through July 14. After July 14, I will be available to love on your babies in the evenings and the weekends. When I am in your home, you can expect me to be respectful of your space and your animals. I always ensure that I leave a space better than I found it, accounting for safety of your pets and your home.
About: Hi! My entire life I have grown up with pets. I have owned multiple breeds, large and small. I currently have two pups, a cream miniature dachshund (Boots) and a dapple miniature dachshund (Buster)! I just recently graduated from physician assistant school at UK and do not start my full time job until October. This allows me to do things I love, like hanging out with dogs! What better way to spend a day than hanging out with our four legged friends! I would love to care for your pets in any capacity I can. Can’t wait to meet your furry family members! I am currently unemployed until October of this year so my schedule is wide open for whatever needs your pet has! I am able to drop in multiple times a day if needed! My dogs are crated when I am not home for safety, but are free to roam when I am home. I am comfortable walking dogs and keeping them on a leash outside when there is no fence available.
“Rachel is the first dog walker I’ve ever hired, and my first experience with Rover. She has been exceptional. SO sweet, great at communicating, and timely. She also spent an extra 20-30 minutes walking my dog (after communicating to see if it was ok), trying to track down a bandana that had fallen off. She has been a huge help to my family, and I can’t recommend her enough.”
About: Hey there! I have grown up surrounded by dogs and have always shared special bonds with them. I currently have a 2-year-old cat, Sue, that my friend found while he was fishing. We lost her brother, Charlie, a couple years ago to cancer. He was a black lab pit mix and the best light to your day! I’m currently working part-time and am looking to supplement that with a few hobbies, and opportunities from here. I will try to make myself available as much as possible if you need me. Although I like it when animals are enjoying themselves, I value safety and can be firm when I need to be. I look forward to (hopefully) meeting you & your furry friends soon! I’m currently most flexible for over the night stays and drop by visits or walks. It would be nice to have something routine, but I’m also interested in sporadic opportunities! I'm not offering stays at my home because my cat isn't a big fan of meeting new animals, but I’m available to come to yours!
About: For over 15 years, I have been the go to person for pet care among friends, family, and neighbors and it is something I genuinely love doing. From quick drop ins to let a pup out for a bathroom break to full time care for two weeks while an owner was away, I have handled it all. I am trusted to feed, walk, play with, and comfort dogs of all sizes and personalities. What started as a favor has grown into something I take real pride in. Whether it is a laid back older dog or a playful puppy, I treat every pet like they are my own. I can’t wait to meet your dog or cat! I will be available most days and times. Please contact me to see if I am available and I will see if I can get your needs taken care of! I can keep your pet safe with any means necessary. Please tell me specifics about your animal’s habits and rules for him or her so I can appropriately accommodate.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 740 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Shakertown. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Shakertown. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Shakertown.
Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s walk begins.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every walker on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Shakertown. On Rover:
- 100% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
